A batch of organic haricot beans with a mild, creamy texture and subtle flavour. Perfect for baking into classic bean dishes, stirring into soups and stews, or mashing into spreads. A pantry essential that pairs well with herbs, tomatoes, greens or grains.

This product is vegan and organic.

Dried beans - great value and easy to use.

Dried beans are pure value and zero waste. Once soaked and cooked, they expand to around two and a half to three times their original weight - so 100g of dried beans makes roughly 250–300g of cooked beans, about the same as a full can or jar’s worth. You get more for your money, less packaging, and complete control over texture, salt, and flavour - all while cutting out cans, jars and additives.

You can also cook dried beans straight from dry in a pressure cooker or Instant Pot - no soaking needed. They’ll be tender and ready in around 25–35 minutes, depending on the variety.

Usage

Hob Method (Recommended)
1. Soak beans overnight in plenty of cold water (8–12 hours).
2. Drain and rinse thoroughly before cooking.
3. Add beans to a large pan with fresh water (about 1 cup beans to 3 cups water).
4. Boil briskly for 10 minutes - this is essential to destroy the natural toxin phytohaemagglutinin.
5. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer gently for 45–60 minutes until tender.
6. Drain and use as desired.

⚠️ Important: Never cook kidney beans in a slow cooker from raw — they must be boiled first.

Pressure Cooker / Instant Pot (No Soaking Needed)
1. Add 1 cup dried beans + 3 cups water to the pot.
2. Cook on high pressure for 25-30 minutes, then allow natural release.
3. Drain and use.
(If soaked beforehand, reduce cooking time to 10–12 minutes.)

Serving Ideas
Perfect for chilli con carne, stews, burrito fillings, and hearty salads. Combine with grains like rice or quinoa for a complete plant-based protein.

A co-operative of ordinary people committed to sourcing the most delicious & sustainable products.

Europe's largest equal pay co-op.

At Suma they’ve been doing things a bit differently for over 40 years. Not only in their mission to supply everything vegetarian and sustainable, but also in how they are run.

A co-operative of ordinary people built on integrity and equality, they’re a worker co-op, a business owned and run by the nearly 200 people who work there. They don’t have any bosses or shareholders. Suma’s employees set the direction of the business. Everyone has an equal say in what they do. They all get paid the same wage, take responsibility and each do a range of jobs each week, from truck driving to cooking to accounts.

It means that when you meet someone who works at Suma, you’re meeting a co-owner who knows and cares about the business. Your driver might work in accounts and product development when she’s not out on the road, so she can give you the bigger picture.

As a co-op they are more than the sum of our parts. When they come together they create something amazing.

Sustainable and delicious products since 1977.

Built on equality and integrity, their own brands provide a wide selection of natural, organic and vegetarian ingredients, a responsibly-sourced household range and gorgeous cruelty-free body care collection.

As a wholesaler, they offer a comprehensive range of wholefoods, vegan, gluten-free and sustainable home and body care products, delivered to businesses and communities across the UK and beyond.

As a worker co-op they have tried hard to put environmental and social goals at the heart of everything they’ve done since they were founded over 45 years ago.

They recognise that we’re facing a climate emergency and need to act. So they’ve reviewed how they approach sustainability and looked for more ways to step up and use their co-op as a force for good. In June 2023 they set out their ambitious sustainability strategy which set their direction for the rest of the decade, to 2030.
